I agree that too many adjectives can make the sentence wordy.
I like your sentence. It sounds like the start of a childrens story.
I would have written it as follows:

A crazy, grey-haired, black woman sat in a big, dark, spooky house
on a long, foggy, narrow, tree-lined street.

I would leave out "empty" since it contradicts the fact that a woman is there. Unless you mean there are no funishings in which case I would describe the contents (or lack thereof) in a separate sentence.
I would leave out "old" or "grey-haired" since they are somewhat redundant.

Also, it is not as flexible as in Russian, word order in the English language.
I don't like the construct "They were in a house, an old man and a young woman."
